There was speculation that the youth star could have been included in the senior side, which drew 0-0 against Leverkusen on Tuesday after the pictures emerged of him in the first team.

He made his debut for the north London club during his side’s 5-0 victory against Gillingham in the EFL Cup, making a 75 minute substitute appearance.

The attacking midfielder has not played since, but manager Mauricio Pochettino has a reputation of nurturing young talent following his move to England in 2013 with both Southampton and Spurs respectively.

The Argetine boss brought through Luke Shaw and Calum Chambers at the Saints, while he has helped to nurture the young talents of Spurs duo Eric Dier and Dele Alli.

Tottenham travel to Bournemouth on Saturday for the early kick off, where they will be looking to improve on their last two fixtures, which has brought two draws.
